We all love a promise...and we hate it, too, right? When someone promises us something, it creates a longing, a hopeful expectation for the fulfillment of something special. Promises give us something to look forward to –– and something to wait for. What’s beautiful is, while we often break our promises to each other, God promises us better things than we could ever imagine, and he never breaks his promises. As we gather this Sunday, we’ll celebrate one of God’s greatest promises ever to us and why his promises give us hope in the here and now.
